Discover Your Style for Dealing with Change and Managing Change – PERSONALITY QUIZ – How Do You React To Change? (Part 1)

Using my Personality Quiz on Change Management; you can find out how you currently react to change; and deal with those changes that are affecting you.

This quiz enables you to discover what your style for managing change is; and it will help you decide, or reflect, on what you can do, when dealing with situations of impending change.

There are no right, or wrong answers to any of the questions and scenarios. Simply, select the options which you think best applies to you. It is important that you are as truthful as possible in your responses to the questions/scenarios; as your profile is based on your answers.

Do enjoy completing this quiz; and share it with your friends, and others in your social networks. You could leave your comments, in the section below. Thanks. Good luck.

Notes: Changes happens in every area of our lives. Think about some of the major changes currently sweeping through the world such as: Artificial Intelligence; Digital Transformation; Internet of Things; FinTech; Robotics; Brexit; America First; Populism; Post-Truth; high rates of divorces and relationship breakdowns.

Change affects all of us and disrupts our workplaces; our work and personal lives. It affects everyone; every organisation; government and nation with the widest range of every imaginable consequences. Change often results from being triggered by something; and this trigger could be big, or small; or even yet another change!

    • Good one. Leslie. Constant change simply for the sake of creating unnecessary change can be unnerving/disconcerting. You are a Change Agent who will act positively when such is needed. Thanks for playing the quiz ?

    • Yes, Watashiwa. You are truly a Change Agent with all the correct qualities! Yours is a positive role that is so much needed in today’s fast moving AI world! Thanks for playing the quiz ?

  1. You got: You are a Change Agent, and a Committed Change Accepter

    As a Change Agent; you truly like change. You do see the need for change; and will accept impending change and give your support for change. You are a true accepter of change and easily an early adopter of change. You find it easy to work as an innovator, or as a disciple of disruptive technology.

    You will often try changing the status quo. You can be a Natural born Rebel. You thrive on change and uncertainty; with a penchant to explore the unknown. For you there is nothing new under the sun.
